Linen Holder

verysweetlife July 4, 2008

At "les Puce", a flea market for antiques on the outskirts of Paris, in a shop selling antique linens, there was a handmade cloth covered box. It was for display only. Given kind permission to examine it, I looked at its construction and made sketches.

Working from the drawings back home, I was able

reproduce the box.

Slow Style

Slow Style is an ongoing project by Sarah Kate Beaumont who since 2008 has designed and crafted every piece of her wardrobe. She has not purchased clothing since the project began.

Combining art and craftsmanship Beaumont’s project embraces individual style and sustainability. It seeks to empower others to question assumptions of consumerism with its inherent cycle of acquisition and disposal, and as an alternative, to explore self-reliance in our shared ecosystem.
